Nigeria and Canada understand that there is no tolerance for errors even at this early stage after being placed in what is perhaps the hardest group of the FIFA Women’s World Cup.

Due to their success at the Women’s Olympic Football Tournament in Tokyo, when they won gold, Canada see itself as possible world champions.

Bev Priestman’s team is aware that failing at the opening stage is a real possibility, particularly if they falter against a Nigerian team that features multiple excellent players.

Canada is competing in their eighth consecutive Women’s World Cup, missing just the inaugural event in 1991.

They each made it to the knockout round at the previous two versions.

Similar to their rivals, the Super Falcons have dealt with various off-field conflicts and annoyances in the lead-up to these playoffs.

However, Randy Waldrum’s team will be optimistic about making it to the Round of 16 for a second consecutive year if their key attackers are healthy.
